[jdk8u-dev] RFR: 8152207: Perform array bound checks while getting a length of bytecode instructions

[Martin Balao]

Hi,

I'd like to propose a backport of 8152207 for 8u as this release is affected. The JDK main line patch applies almost cleanly, except for the file path and the copyright date.

Thanks,
Martin.-
